以色列第12频道周日播出的一项调查引发了怀疑，即总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡的助手涉嫌策划了10月27日——即议会选举当天——在以色列南部逮捕阿拉伯联合名单党（拉阿姆党）活动人士的行动。
An investigation broadcast Sunday by Israel’s Channel 12 has raised suspicions that associates of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu were involved in orchestrating the arrests of activists of the United Arab List party (Ra’am) in southern Israel on Oct. 27, the day of the Knesset election.
根据该调查，内塔尼亚胡的办公室主任伊多·诺登在选举前夕联系了警察总长办公室，就三名拉阿姆党活动人士在以色列南部的活动提出投诉。他还指引警方关注一名情报来源，称该来源掌握与案件相关的信息。
According to the probe, Netanyahu’s chief of staff, Ido Norden, contacted the police commissioner’s office on the eve of the election and lodged a complaint about the activities of three Ra’am activists in southern Israel. He also directed police to an intelligence source he said had information relevant to the case.
调查确认该情报来源是总理办公室的一名前雇员，与曾任该办公室总干事的约西·谢利关系密切。
The investigation identified the source as a former employee of the Prime Minister’s Office who was close to Yossi Shelley, who served as its director general.
据报道，该来源提供的信息包含针对这些活动人士的指控，但后来被证明缺乏确凿证据。
The source provided information containing allegations against the activists that later proved to lack solid evidence, according to the report.
警方当晚将该信息录入其情报系统。报道称，这条线索和内塔尼亚胡办公室的投诉构成了逮捕行动的基础，警方于选举当天实施了逮捕。
Police logged the information in their intelligence systems that night. The tip and the complaint from Netanyahu’s office formed the basis for the arrests, which police carried out on election day, the report said.
据调查，约14名警官在没有搜查令的情况下突击搜查了这三名活动人士的住所，也没有逮捕令。被拘留者中包括来自拉哈特的医生萨亚夫·阿布·里亚什。
Around 14 officers raided the homes of the three activists without search warrants. They also conducted the raids without arrest warrants, according to the investigation. Among those detained was Sayaf Abu Riash, a doctor from Rahat.
警方指控这些活动人士携带大量现金和拉阿姆党代金券，意图影响选民并在投票站争取支持。
Police alleged that the activists were carrying large sums of cash and Ra’am vouchers intended to sway voters and secure their support at the polls.
调查称，内塔尼亚胡迅速公开这些指控，并在整个选举日反复宣扬。调查引发怀疑，认为其办公室协助启动了此案，并称该案后来被用于助推一场声称阿拉伯人正在窃取选举的竞选活动。
The investigation said Netanyahu quickly publicized the allegations and repeated them throughout election day. It raised suspicions that his office had helped set the case in motion and said the case was later used to fuel a campaign claiming that Arabs are stealing the elections.
申请窃听五名阿拉伯裔议员电话 此外，调查发现，在选举当天，以色列总安全局（辛贝特）局长大卫·齐尼请求批准窃听五名阿拉伯裔国会议员的电话，理由是涉嫌外国势力干预选举。
Bid to wiretap five Arab lawmakers Separately, the investigation found that Shin Bet chief David Zini requested permission on election day to wiretap the phones of five Arab members of the Knesset, citing suspected foreign interference in the election.
据调查显示，总检察长加利·巴哈拉夫-米亚拉驳回了该请求，并在最后一刻叫停。调查指出，司法机关未发现任何确凿证据表明存在可能损害选举公正性的外国干预行为。
Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara rejected the request and blocked it at the last moment, according to the investigation. It said judicial authorities found no concrete evidence of foreign interference that could have compromised the integrity of the election.
调查援引一名熟悉案情的资深执法官员的警告称，此类做法可能破坏未来的选举。该官员表示，近期发生的事件让他相信“这里不会再有公平的选举了”，他指的是警方和辛贝特被明知故犯或无意中用于服务政治利益。
The investigation quoted a senior law enforcement official familiar with the case as warning that such practices could undermine future elections. The official said the recent events had led him to believe that “there will not be another fair election here,” referring to what he described as the use of the police and Shin Bet, knowingly or otherwise, to serve political interests.
齐尼的选举舞弊指控 调查还披露了齐尼在选举后两天与“以色列复原党”领导人加迪·艾森科特会面的细节，后者后来被授予组建下届政府的任务。齐尼在艾森科特面前放了一份“厚厚的卷宗”，声称掌握可追溯至2018年的信息，显示“阿拉伯人正在窃取以色列的选举”。他表示，前任辛贝特局长都无视这些信息，而他决定立案调查。
Zini’s election fraud allegations The investigation also reported details of a meeting Zini held two days after the election with Yashar party leader Gadi Eisenkot, who was later tasked with forming the next government. Zini placed a “thick file” in front of Eisenkot and claimed he had information dating back to 2018 indicating that “Arabs are stealing elections in Israel.”He said previous Shin Bet chiefs had ignored the information and that he had decided to open the case.
报告称，齐尼的言论在辛贝特和执法官员中引发担忧，特别是因为没有证据被提交以证实选举舞弊或外国干预的指控。
The report said Zini’s remarks raised concerns among Shin Bet and law enforcement officials, particularly because no evidence had been presented to substantiate the allegations of election fraud or foreign interference.
贝尔谢巴治安法院下令在阿布·里亚什被羁押六天后释放他。警方曾声称从其住所查获了“大量物品”，但据报告称，这场无搜查令的搜查一无所获。
The Beersheba Magistrate’s Court ordered Abu Riash’s release after six days in custody. Police had claimed to have recovered “numerous items” from his home, but the warrantless search turned up nothing, according to the report.
调查结果引发了关于警方和辛贝特是否被用于政治和选举争端，以及安全机构在多大程度上免受政治干预的质疑。该案仍在审查中，调查提出的部分指控仍未解决。
The findings raise questions about whether the police and Shin Bet were used in political and electoral disputes and how insulated the security agencies are from political interference. The case remains under review, and some of the allegations raised by the investigation are still unresolved.
